Southern Tier Recycling

Specialized sorting and materials handling equipment is being installed in preparation for the start of operations at a newly-constructed recycling facility in Tioga County.

Big changes are being proposed for Tioga County's recycling program even as construction is being completed on a new material handling facility in Apalachin.

A $6 million recycling complex is being built on the Tioga County site where a massive blaze ripped through a similar facility six months ago.

As it rebuilds, Southern Tier Recycling will charge a fee to accept recycling material consistent with previous volumes.
